Hi,

I simply want to score the results of my "more\_like\_this\_field" query on my own.  
Why doesn't this work?

###### { "query": { "function\_score": { "more\_like\_this\_field": { "test\_field": { "like\_text": "this is a test", "min\_term\_freq" : "0", "min\_doc\_freq": "0" } }, "functions": [{ "script\_score": { "script": "\_score \* 2" } }] } } }
